Petty sure most people would love to live at least mostly off their own piece of land but for the vast majority that's basically impossible at this point and for several reasons that regular people have no real control over. Of course TPTB want everyone to think that everyone else just loves their ball and chain. Look at how much pushback there is currently of office type employees over being told to come back to the office. They don't want to be there, they want to work from home, they want to be home. And these are city folk, who vacation to beaches, mountains, forests, etc mind you. Don't believe the lie. Most people want a more natural and simple life. They just don't think it's possible anymore.
